Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Ligue 1 match.
Paris Saint-Germain’s attack is currently the most dominant in world football, and against Toulouse, they will look to extend their recent dominance. Paris Saint-Germain are on fire, showing no mercy to opponents, and Toulouse are unlikely to pose much of a threat.
Toulouse
It has been a disastrous month for Toulouse. An elimination from the Coupe de France at the hands of Guingamp (0:2) and a four-game winless run in Ligue 1 have pushed them further away from European contention, now sitting seven points behind the top spots. Their attacking struggles are evident—since the start of January, they have generated just 8.11 xG in six matches, the third-worst tally in the league.
Paris Saint-Germain
Paris Saint-Germain’s dominant victory over Stade Brestois (3:0) on Tuesday was their fourth consecutive win by three or more goals since late January. They created 2.72 xG, with Masour Dembélé scoring twice—his tally now stands at 18 goals since mid-December. In Ligue 1, their offensive numbers are staggering, with 64.88 xG in 21 matches, over 20 xG ahead of the next-best team.
Toulouse vs Paris Saint-Germain Prediction
Paris Saint-Germain eased past Toulouse (3:0) in November, and another comfortable win is expected. With Toulouse struggling and Paris Saint-Germain’s attack in full flow, a convincing win for the visitors looks like the best bet.
